The Phoenix Wake-Up Call:
Ending the Collateral Damage

The healthcare status quo is our country’s greatest immediate threat.
We need all Americans together to fix it.

The Wake-Up Call roadshow shines a spotlight on the dysfunction of our nation’s healthcare system and demonstrate how this dysfunction is the root cause of the Opioid Crisis. More importantly, the Wake-Up Call reveals the roles each of us can play in our communities to solve the largest public health crisis in 100 years.
It’s not just a problem for rural America. A 2017 survey by the National Safety Council, a research and advocacy organization, finds that a stunning 70% of employers reported their businesses had been affected by prescription drug abuse through absenteeism, positive drug tests, injuries, accidents and overdoses.
Employers like you are facing the brunt of the crisis. It’s time to act.
At the Phoenix Wake-Up Call, Dave Chase, Health Rosetta co-founder, will convene with local employers, healthcare experts, public officials and prominent business and civic leaders to show attendees the havoc our dysfunctional healthcare system has wreaked on our nation, both in rising healthcare premiums and the country’s opioid crisis. Then, experts will reveal how to stop this collateral damage, saving millions on employee benefits while improving the quality of healthcare in America.
